Netgalley Review:
I think it is safe to say I am an Elle Spencer fan generally. One thing I like about her books is that they usually have interesting arcs. They go up and down and all around. Almost more like a satisfying fanfic rather than a lesbian romance novel. Give in to Me had all of that; It had drama, it zigged when you thought it was going to zag, the characters totally shifted and took on new and different roles. It was honestly kind of all over the place. I enjoyed the journey but when it finished I sort of asked myself, what was this all about? Was it enemies to lovers? Was it a Holywood showmance? Was it a love triangle to triad story? It was kind of none of these and it was randomly instalove, which is not my fave. Then it veered into a very different direction with the writer's retreat cabin plotline in the last 20%. Basically, I read it with rivetted enjoyment but then had a hangover after. I'm still a fan, but for now, next.

This book was a very pleasant surprise! Nice plot, smart dialogues, very likable characters! Everything you'd wish in a book! I'd gladly recommend this book to any of my friends!

Whitney is writer who is suffering writer block she gets by with speaking at conventions. She is also dealing with getting divorce from her wife Reese who is a famous actress of seven years.
Whitney feels like she isn’t a success when she get manger Liz goes to the hotel bar Liz notice a woman staring and set up the woman with Whitney and they have amazing one night stand.
Brie is thrill that she get a chance to interview her favorite author she didn’t expect to spend the night with her. When Whitney learns she is the one that gave her a negative review of her latest book she angry and hurt.
This was funny cute romance. I like that Brie didn’t give up and felt that their attraction could turn into something more. I love this author you can really see she bring the characters out and this author books would be great on streaming service rom-com.
I received an ARC copy of this book from the Publisher via Netgalley and voluntarily leaving my review.

This is a light and sometimes silly romance. Perfect for a beach read or lounging by a pool. Whitney Ainsworth is a writer whose latest book in her popular series didn't do well. Then there is the divorce from Reece a major actress who left her for someone else after seven years of marriage. Speaking at conventions is getting her by while trying to get back writing. Her manager Liz sends someone to her hotel room that ends in a fabulous night together, only to find there was a big miscommunication. Brie Talbot, not wanting to give up on what was the best night of her life, wants to reconnect with Whitney. She hopes their attraction can be the start of something new.
First off this is a very funny book. Elle Spencer has a gift of humor, especially one liners. Humor flows through out in dialog whether it is talking to a convention, loving bickering with a sibling, dealing with an agent, parents walking in at inappropriate times or appearing on a late night talk show. The story ebbs and flows. Spencer took turns I wasn't expecting and makes it work. The best thing is no one is a villain, especially the ex-wife. I felt some storylines got forgotten and instead the plot jumps to the next funny moment. A big deal was made with Whitney, Reece and Brie appearing together at film premiere. It wasn't clear to me if Brie was there as a credited screen writer or for the publicity of their being a threesome. Did Liz help get Bries screen play seen for the second book?
Side characters were solid and added much to the story. Brie's family interactions were wonderful in supporting her. Whitney has her agent Liz and Reece but there's not much else about her background. Was she successful before marrying? Does she have other books besides her popular series? I understand Whitney didn't feel she was in a position to move forward in a relationship but that lets the romance dangle for awhile and not develop. My heart broke for Brie after the cabin incident. And the resolution of that felt quick for such a big moment.
I definitely would recommend this book to friends who enjoy fun sapphic romances. It isn't a perfect 5 stars but I'm rounding up because it is better than a lot of books I've given 4s. (4.5 stars). Thank you NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books, Inc. for an ARC ebook in exchange for an honest review.

From the first page I knew I was in for a treat. Reading this book felt similar to when I read Casting Lacey for the first time, which I consider to be one of my favorite books, because it was a such a charming story with characters that were so likable that I wanted to meet and get to know them in real life.
The story flows well, I was never bored and always needed to know what came next.
This book had me laughing out loud many times, I loved the story, and I didn’t want it to end. For me that’s a sign of a great book, when I don’t want the story to end because I don’t want to leave these characters. This is one of those cases.
I’m sure you won’t be disappointed if you read this one.

Fun, sexy, absolutely enjoyable. This is a book you should tuck into your beach bag this summer. Brie and Whitney have excellent chemistry as well and penchant for disaster (hilarious disaster). Throw in Hollywood, a famous ex, and a nutty agent and you have a recipe for a whole lot of fun

Whitney is having a rough year. She has just gotten a divorce from a Hollywood A actress and then her 3rd book in her latest series has not been a success. With all of the drama in her life, she has developed writers block. She has been giving talks on success at business seminars however she starts to feel like she isn’t successful as things have not been going well. At the hotel bar where the seminar was held, Whitney and her agent, Liz notice a beautiful woman looking at Whitney. Liz arranged for the woman to hook up with Whitney as she feels that will help Whitney out of her slump. The two woman are very attracted to each other and have a night of incredible sex. However, in the morning, Whitney kicks her out when she finds out that Brie is the one that wrote a horrible review of her recent book. Eventually they meet up again and resolve their issues and developed a relationship. This a quick and lighthearted read. I recommend this book.

I really enjoyed this one, the premise was great. I think the aspect that I liked most about this was that none of the characters were terrible people, all were likeable. I was happy to see that the dreaded ex wasn't out to ruin things for the MCs
From the start the chemistry between Brie and Whitney was evident. The communication! Oh the communication between them. For the most part they were open about how they were each feeling and dealing with the situation. There was also a lot of humor which I appreciate, mainly in the way of one-liners.
I'm a big fan of Elle Spencer and this one just adds to her appeal as an author.

4 stars, I liked this book. It was a very casual read and I do recommend it.
Whitney is an author who’s going through a divorce from the famous Reece. One night at a bar she meets Brie. When a small misunderstanding leads to them having sex both of their lives are about to change- more so Brie’s than Whitney’s.
My only complaint is there was a big part in the middle of this book where Whitney and Brie didn’t have any build. The chemistry between them stops and the plot solely focuses on Brie, which makes sense and does add to the story but I do think some more scenes between them could’ve made the story even better as there is a lack of buildup. They sleep together, have a small misunderstanding and then suddenly they like each other after two more meetings. Then soon after Brie suddenly decides she loves her which to me felt very lack luster.
The later part of the book where conflict does arrive between the two did somewhat help but not fully.
Again I still do recommend as the book was very easy to read and had a nice flow.
Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for the arc in return for an honest review.
